For the picspammy challenge.
My obsession of the moment, Flashforward, my favourite character so far, Janis Hawk.
I love them all, but she's become my favourite. I love watching her talk, the super cute glasses. I fail at explaining why I like things, but adore her, a whole lot.
No spoilers for 1x04, but definitely for 1x01 - 1x03.
1x01: No More Good Days Obvious scene choice for this episode, but I still love it regardless. Her bemusement over being pregnant six months from now, her face when she says "I don't even have a boyfriend", and then CBV's face.
Boss: Janis, you wanna share what you saw?
Janis: Yeah, I was... Getting a prenatal sonogram. The baby was about 17 weeks old, and it was a little girl. It was totally bizarre...
But I'm obviously not pregnant. I don't even have a boyfriend.
1x02: White to Play This scene turns me into a crazy shipper, not that I needed much nudging, I shipped them slightly from the first episode. Then this just clinched it. I wanted to include Didi, and her jumpsuit, but I got a little cap happy with Demetri & Janis, so I had to leave her out. But there is grey shirt, and super cute glasses, with feet placement that makes me think silly things, so all good still.
Janis: Oooh. Flash-forward to my ass ballooning two sizes.
Demetri: But you saw yourself pregnant, so your fat ass gets a pass.
Janis: You know, it's so funny. I've never had that "ticking clock" feeling. You know, I've never even had the urge to have a baby. There I was... Some blonde woman giving me an ultrasound.
Demetri: This sonographer... Maybe she saw you, too. Maybe she's out there somewhere, waitin' for you to post something.
Janis: Yeah. Why not?
Janis: I wanna know.
Sonographer: It's a girl.
Janis: (crying) Okay.
Janis: There. Your turn.
Demetri: I didn't see anything, Janis.
Janis: Yeah, you know, some people just think that means you'll be asleep.
Demetri: Or it means I'll be dead. I met a woman today who didn't have a vision. Five minutes after she told me, she was shot and killed.
Janis: Have you talked to Zoey about this?
Demetri: In my experience, fiancees aren't really big on their grooms dying before the wedding. Ruins the first dance.
Janis: Yeah.
Demetri: Heavy corpse. It's bad wedding etiquette or something.
Janis: Okay, if you're gonna be dead-- and that's a big "if"... Don't you kinda wanna know how it happens?
Demetri: I don't know. I don't think so.
Janis: Yeah, but if you know, maybe you can prevent it. And maybe there's somebody out there that has information that can help you.
Demetri: What the hell.
1x03: 137 Sekunden This scene made me love her, not 100% why. The nose rub is ridiculously cute, I like watching her talk, the way she says the Nazi line.
Janis: Buy you a drink?
Mark: No, thanks.
Janis: (raises glass) To moral relativism.
Mark: I'm sorry this is bothering you so much.
Janis: Oh, I'm sorry this isn't bothering you at all.
Mark: Oh, don't make this personal.
Janis: You know what? Don't hide behind the badge. You're the one driving this thing, Mark. You are. Just own it... at least.
Mark: Fine. I've been driving this. It's what we do, Janis. We cut the dealer a pass to get the distributor. We let the foot soldier walk to bust the kingpin.
Janis: But there have to be some limits, Mark. There have to be people that we won't deal or flip. And I'm sorry, but if we can't even draw that line at a Nazi, I just don't even know what we're doing anymore.
Mark: Have you ever taken a leap of faith?
Janis: What's that got to do with anything?
Mark: I'm pushing this because I have faith that seeing Geyer's picture in my flash-forward means his information will be important to us.
Janis: Well, there you go. There's our problem, because in my flash-forward, all I saw was a baby that I don't even know I want. So how can I have faith in something I'm not even sure is real?
Mark: Then you've got a problem, because that's what faith is.
